Citation:
DeSantis, M. Destabilization of Lead Pipe Scales in a Long-Term Vacant Home in Cincinnati. Hamilton County Lead and Healthy Homes Collaborative monthly meeting, Cincinnati, OH, January 18, 2018.
Impact/Purpose:
This presentation was requested by the Hamilton County Lead and Healthy Homes Collaborative to inform them about possible concerns and issues of lead in drinking water that might occur in abandoned housing in Cincinnati.
Description:
this presentation covers an ongoing study at a Cincinnati house, following the progression of lead release from a lead service line with different amounts of stagnation time and water use. This presentation is essentially the same as the talk cleared for AWWA ACE 2017, with some graphs updated for more recent sampling and some others edited for clarity.
